[Meme] Facts and Laws Don't Matter to Team UPC

Are you telling me that something of the EU which strictly requires London can be passed without the United Kingdom in the EU?

Summary: Unless London is moving -- literally relocating -- to Italy or France (or Britain re-joins the EU), the UPCA is, by definition, simply dead and Team UPC is just lying and cheating in another desperate effort to salvage something* of proposed laws crafted by themselves (for self-enrichment at Europe's expense); these lies are repeated almost every day, so more people need to call them out on it ____ * As noted in the latest Daily Links, hours ago we caught up with this post from Keltie LLP; in it, they're lying about UPC prospects yet again; notice how Team UPC keeps pretending that the UK is still in the EU and will ratify (it cannot; in fact it de-ratified). These patent litigation firms and their largest clients have infiltrated and corrupted patent offices; next, with UPC, they want to do the same to courts. Not only administrative tribunals.
